#ValentinesDay is meant to be a day of love & kindness, especially in the era of #COVID19
Instead I've seen some very nasty & racist posts on social media today
So I've decided to share a few of the accounts I
following, all of which remind me there is good in the world.

@Flaminhaystack is beyond amazing and well worth a follow.
She frequently calls out sexism, posts fascinating historical threads and shares her incredible art with the world.
Plus she is lovely and kind and a firefighter. In other words she's awesome!

@TravActivist constantly campaigns in support of Travellers. By following them I've learned a lot about how this community is treated.
Their tweets can make me sad and angry, but the work they are doing is really important and needs sharing and support.

@LucidWhim is a wonderful and kind woman. Her amazing daughter Amy was killed by #SecondaryBreastCancer last year 
Fiona is always there to provide support, kindness & encouragement to other #cancer patients, while speaking up on behalf of those of us who are #DyingForACure.

@runawaygirl248 is another wonderful person to follow.
A particular highlight of her account is the adorable photos and videos she shares of her 3 dogs:
@Theocav2019
@saffy2019
@MillyMoo2019
I highly recommend following all of them. The dogs post some great tweets!

@abcdiagnosis is a tireless & determined campaigner for everyone with #BreastCancer, especially those of us with #SecondaryBreastCancer.
She helped set up @metupukorg and alongside @bccww has been one of the forces that has kept me sane since my diagnosis.
Definitely a shero

@hannahw253 is inspirational & educational to follow.
She served in the British Army (which is enough to earn my respect). She then went on to become an advocate for trans issues, earning a well deserved MBE.

@karren_brady is one of my idols & role models in life. Her book Strong Woman helped me get through my 1st experience of managing people at work.
Since my #SecondaryBreastCancer diagnosis I've re-read it several times for inspiration.
Her tweets are always great as well!

I always recommend that people follow @AuschwitzMuseum.
Their tweets frequently make me cry, but they serve as a vital reminder of the dangers of hatred.
The Holocaust didn't start with gas chambers. It started with hate filled words, discrimination & intolerance.

These accounts all inspire me and provide a counter to some of the nastiness in the world.
I don't mind people disagreeing, but be kind about it. There's always room for more kindness in the world.
If you made it this far in the thread thanks for reading
